This research studied vocabulary selection and translation of China’s Report on the Work of the Government (RWG) from the perspective of semantic prosody (SP). “noticeably”, “considerably” & “resolutely” were adopted to give a case study with the help of corpus tools under the theoretical guidance of Corpus-based Translation Studies (CBTS) and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The RWG corpus was compared with the British National Corpus (BNC) in emotion color and pragmatic meaning. Major findings include that there are similarities and conflicts in terms of the SP performance of three adverb words in the two corpora. Instead of following the mainstream SP shown by the BNC, “noticeably” “considerably” & “resolutely” met purposes of language use and political communication, and gave an impact on lexical selection and translation. For political considerations, employed as translation words in the RWG, “noticeably” “considerably” & “resolutely” strongly demonstrate that the Chinese government was dedicated to delivering China’s voice and building a good national image in China’s Report on the Work of the Government.

As higher education becomes more digitally mediated and internationally oriented, social media interaction has increasingly become a crucial way across linguistic and cultural boundaries. It functions as a space where interaction unfolds, and meanings are negotiated. To explore how it contributes to the development of intercultural digital communication competence, this study conducted a systematic literature review. Following a PRISMA-guided process, we identified 19 empirical studies published between 2015 and 2025 and evaluated them using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). The findings suggested that this competence develops through the combined influence of pragmatic resources, ongoing behavioral adjustment, and affective factors. Features of politeness strategies, stance-taking, and multimodal cues play a noticeable role in shaping interaction. The result showed that participation alone does not automatically lead to improvement, and structured support and opportunities for reflection also make a difference. These findings offered implications for communication training and digitally mediated learning in higher education.

To gain a clear understanding of the current state of research on the reproduction of language style in translation, we systematically analyzed 61 relevant academic studies conducted over the past decade (2014–2024). Stylistic reproduction highlights the importance of conveying the original style in translation, focusing on how to preserve and reflect the style. Driven by the characteristics of the times, the expansion of academic background, the deepening of translation studies, and the practical demands of translation practice, research on stylistic reproduction has garnered increasing interest from scholars. Fruitful results have been yielded in terms of research content, which covers general trends, topics and areas of focus, types and challenges of style, as well as applied theoretical frameworks, translation principles and strategies. However, deficiencies have also emerged. These issues include repetitive research topics and content, findings that lack analytical completeness and reasonability, conceptual confusion regarding translation terminology, the limited range of languages examined, and the absence of effective evaluation mechanisms for stylistic reproduction. This study suggests that future research should adopt diverse perspectives, identify new materials, and strengthen both theoretical and textual analysis. It should also innovate research methods and instruments to enhance the reliability and originality of findings. Current research highlights the need for future investigations to address the international dissemination of high-quality translations and the stylistic reproduction of non-literary styles. The findings of this study aim to illuminate existing challenges and gaps in the field, offering fresh perspectives and approaches for future research on stylistic reproduction in translation.
